Advisor Blames "Climategate" Revelations on Espionage
A report was posted at Independent.co.uk about claims mad by David King, who served as Blair’s advisor for seven years:
In an interview with The Independent, Sir David suggested the email leaks were deliberately designed to destabilise Copenhagen and he dismissed the idea that it was a run-of-the-mill hacking. It was carried out by a team of skilled professionals, either on behalf of a foreign government or at the behest of anti-climate change lobbyists in the United States, he said.
However, King is not content merely to generically blame “a foreign government”; instead, he appears prepared to lay the blame at the door of the Russian government, in part, apparently, because of an effort by the hackers themselves to leave a trail of evidence leading back to Russia. According to the Independent:
Experts have suggested that loading the email file onto a Tomsk computer server may have been a clumsy attempt to lay a trail to the door of the Russian intelligence service, which has since denied any involvement in the hacking incident. Some commentators in Russia have said that China had more to gain from destabilising the Copenhagen conference than Russia.
Sir David said, however, that it was not possible to dismiss the possibility of Russia's involvement. "If it was a job done on behalf of a government, then I suppose there is the possibility that it could be the Russian intelligence agency," he said.
"If it was a maverick group then I suppose it could be the Americans, but I am hazarding a guess as much as anyone else. The only thing is, I've worked within government and I've seen this in operation," Sir David added. "It was a sophisticated and expensive operation. In terms of the expense, there is the American lobby system which is a very likely source of finance. Right now, the American lobbyists are a very likely source of finance for this, so the finger must point to them," he said.

if you stop to think, there arent enough facts and studies well made to provide proofs to either side, so yeah, we could have a conspiracy here and as I said, everyone should pay attention to all this madness, since a lot of money is involved

remember, money is what moves our world, nobody is going to stop and lose money because of some scientists said its possible, so, its really weird that all these global warming process is being forced by some world leaders like obama.

and another weird thing is for obama to joke about "deniers" - he is just saying by doing that, that he doesnt believe in the scientific proofs about global warming, otherwise, he would change everyone minds presenting this definitive proofs that AL GORE always talk about ...
